Ok, so this is the first time I've ever cared to think deeply about this passage. I'm wondering what ya'll think of what I think this is about: 2 Peter 2:22 KJV - 22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog [is] turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was...

It has occurred to me, and I hope this helps to generate future and permanent change, that each time I express any form of opposition to this world, the opportunity to share the Gospel is lost, if not most likely, anyway. This is a stark reminder of how we are to conduct ourselves in this...

Hello friendly friends, I am working my way through Day 356 of the timeline, chronological study plan and in this set of unbelievable Scripture, arises this matter of the Levitical Law and its expiration date. :) Hebrews 8:13 KJV - 13 In that he saith, A new [covenant], he hath made the first...

As usual, only those who have been given the hearts to build up and encourage others, you are the ones I hope to hear from. Those who thrive on teaching each other apart: Please visit another thread. Today's study of 1 Peter is extremely difficult, and the above concept is no different. 1...

Hola, Scholars! I'm working on a one-day study of 1 Peter and thought I would run this verse past those of you who don't take things so seriously. If gold and silver are considered impure and thus cannot be used to purify a person's soul, why would water be any different? 1 Peter 1:18-19 KJV -...

As I often say, we are Christian Brothers and Sisters in Christ . . . let us Love each other as we discuss our Beloved Bible. 1 Timothy 2:15 NLT - "But women will be saved through childbearing, assuming they continue to live in faith, love, holiness, and modesty." I am studying 1 Timothy for...

This concept has bothered me for quite some time. Does anyone have any ideas of how we justify the two below, and apparently opposing concepts? Romans 9:27 NLT – “And concerning Israel, Isaiah the prophet cried out, "Though the people of Israel are as numerous as the sand of the seashore, only...

Hello friends, I'm doing a bit of writing on the true character of Paul and would like to get a feel of the percentage of what Christians think about what Paul said of himself in the unbelievable Romans Chapter 7. Thanks!!

The below passage struck me as never before: Romans 1:24 NLT - "So God abandoned them to do whatever shameful things their hearts desired. As a result, they did vile and degrading things with each other's bodies." If I said that I abandoned my wife and my children, wouldn't this indicate that...

Dear Free Will. I just wanted to let you know how much I am thankful for you. If not for you, God would be in control of me. And that would, well, just be awful, in fact, it would be hateful of Him if He took you away from me. I don’t know what I’d do without you. I mean, I wouldn’t be allowed...

If the Law Protected the Jews . . . What then, happened to Gentiles if they committed the same sin that would require the death of the Jew? The Law was given so that when the Jews sinned, they could sacrifice an animal. Thus the animal died to spare the sinner's life. So again, what about the...

Is it possible that Peter's Vision also served as a purpose to get Peter to realize that he and the Jewish believers no longer need to follow the Jewish customs regarding what is and is not considered clean. He even stated that he had continued, to that day, following the customs of Moses since...

Was Jesus sent to Earth as a baby 2000 years ago? Or, has He been here since the world began, notably as the Tree of Life? John 17:5 NLT - "Now, Father, bring me into the glory we shared before the world began." I have never realized this passage until the last day or two. Unbelievable.

All opinions welcome . . . rude people, not so much. I'm not one for turning to commentaries, but would rather turn to people whom I can ask questions and clarify. Therefore, in the Scripture below, why will Jesus hold the current body of Jewish rulers and authorities responsible for the deaths...

When He began talking to you, would He find you to be more like His Disciple or like a Pharisee, Sadducee, and teacher of the Law?

As I have read through the Bible several times, I have logged the many passages that clearly show that God caused people and groups of people to think, act, and speak against their own will. And while a person may not change their view once I have offered all passages collected, a new...

Folks, I never thought that in my lifetime I would ever see such a horrific glorification of murdering babies in the "Greatest Country in the World." Click the below link to see a deranged woman imitate the literal shredding apart of a baby child. Lord, have Mercy upon these people, for they...
